Harddisk is not detected

[Shiva]

Hi,

I've just bought a new harddrive. Unfortunately, it is *not* detected by
the motherboard. The PC displays the message 'Detecting IDE Primary-master'
and then it hangs.
I made sure all the jumpers are set correctly (the new drive is the master,
my old drive is the slave).
Here is some more info:

- motherboard P6SET-ML. This is an old motherboard, perhaps that's the cause
of this problem. The processor is an Intel Celeron 600 Mhz
- The new drive, set as a master drive, is a Samsung Datalux 80 Gb

Any idea's?

Thanks in advance!
